Harper's Magazine: A clergyman
was so unfortunate as to be caught in
severe gale in the voyage out. The
water was eXceedly rough, and the
ship presistently buried her nose in
the sea. The rolling was constant,
and at last the good man got thor
ougly frightened. He believed they
were destined Tor a watery grave.
He asked the captain il he could not
have prayers. The captain took him
by the arm and led him down to the
forecastle, where the tars were sing
ing and swearing. "There," said he,
"when you hear them swearing you
may know there is no danger"
He went back feeling better but
the storm increased his alarm. Dis
consulate and unassisted he managed
to stagger to the forecastle again
The ancient mariners were swearing
as ever. MARY" he said, as he
crawled into his berth, to his sympa
thetic wife, after lacking across a we
deck-"Mary, thank God hey'r
Swearing yet."

be crowned with renewed glory and
continued peace and safety, it will be
only because the sons hold in sacred
trust what the fathers so grandly es-
tablished and transmitted. The inter-
ests of religion lie near the life of the
State While the trainers of our Con-
stitution declared absolute liberation
and protection for all forms of religi-
GUS faith, they put them in union
with unqualified recognition that
"the public worship ofGod and in
struction of piety, religion, and NOR
atty promote the happiness of a peo-
pie and the security of a republican
government" Though the State
has no established church, her people
cannot neglect the the interests Of
religion without grave danger togood
order and security.

GENERAL T.. c. WALTHALL.

Mississippi, has In Ganeral Wal
thall, asuperb aud superbly equipped
public servant. The best part Of him
10 his independence. He never ask
ed or solicited the aid of any man by
which to help him mount to the
place he occupies. No ring ever ap-
preached him with its solicitations
or linked his name with its schemes.
He Ia in the Senate of the United
States to-day as much by the will Of
the people of Mississippi as if they
had voted for him. 1t was the de-
mand Of the people, who are quick to
recognize the browning merit Of a
pure souled man that secured for
him the place vacated by his Illus
trious fliend, Secretary Lamar. AS
General Walthall was selected, SO
every public servant should be select
ed by the people Of Mississippi. His
name stands synonymous for gentle
man. What nobler deserving than
this can come to crown life. Good
breeding is the marrow and stamina
of his character. His loyalty to truth
is the loyalty of a profoundly relig-
ious conviction. His duties az SOL
dier, as citizen and as Senator, have
been burdens to him, but PLEASURES,
and years ago he had strength of
character sufficient to resist the temp
tations of Office, and say No" and
say it with thanks, but very firmly.
There are not many Walthalls any
where; but why not make him the
standard in Mississippi by which to
test the fitness of candidates for
office aud forever shut uut the possi
bliteis of Hamiltons and put an end
to the bossing that in some places is
practiced, especially upon negroes by
cross-road doggery keepers without
conscience and ready for any crime
that will bridge them over to success
Senator Walthall is fine example OF
integrity; he is L fine example OF
what a Senator should be, and no
man that has seen him in Washing
ton has ever felt otherwise than
proud that Mississippi had such a

FARMERS ALLIANCES.

The farmers Of the South especially
need something to lift them from the
Slough of Desponl in which their
financial condition has thrown them.
We see tha whole world making a
better living by handl'ng our pro-
ducts than we make by production.
We know that ii is but right that
those who handle, manufacture and
sell aur products shOnld have fair re-
muneratinn for their labor and the
use of their capital, but we see that
the producer of the raw material is
the poorest of all the laborers en-
gagged.
The Alliance is nuu-political in a
partisan sense, and will not be the
tool of any set Of machine politicians
or political "axe-grinders." We ex-
pect to urge the study of Republican
government, for We are aware that
we owe many of ou. misfortunes to
misruIe and corrupt legislation. We
wish to inculoate honest principles
and Democratic ideas. We know that
we are down-trodden by monied
deapotisrn, and that unless we sue
ceed onr country will, before long, be
the homes Of serfs, and our land the
land of monied enperofs.
We feel that the blood shed by our
forefathers has dearly bought Amer
lean liberty, but that that liberty is
almost lost by the power of money in
government.
These seem to he gloomy views but
they are sustained by The facts.

good in the sections where it has
taken root. The credit system has
been vanquished wherever it has

Since the time that law went into Of

A NEGRO UPRISING.
Murder of Black Constable Causes
the Excitement,


Houston, Ten, Sept. 26.-Word was
brought last evening that an insurrection
was imminent among the blacks IN Mata-
gorda county. The Sheriff of Matagorda
county sent courier to Sheriff Hicley, of
Brazoria county, asking for immediate
assistance to put down an insur-
rection. The courier states that
over 200 negroes were under arms in
Matagorda, and that the excitement among
the whites was very great. The trouble
arose over an attempt of colored constable
to arrest a white man who resided on Coney
creek. The Constable was found dead,
lying in the water of the creek, and the ne
groes believe that he was murdered by white
men of the vicinity, because he had been
sent for one of their number. Later reports
last night stated that Sheriff Hicley
had raised posse of fifty
mounted white men and started for Mata.
gorda, while the Sheriff of Matagorda
county was en- route to the scene of the
trouble with 100 mounted men. At noon
to-day the alarming report reached this city
that the Sherff's forces had arrived and ac-,
tive hostilities begun. The negroes have
been largely reinforced. The Houston
Light Guards received orders this after
noon to leave on a special train for the town
of Columbia, in Brazoria county.
